DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN GAKUEN ALICE.
Chapter 1: You never know what will hit you.
"the more you hate the more you love?"
"Ow!" I screamed. I immediately ducked to hide myself. I peeped to see if he noticed. Phew! Good thing he didn't. Stupid tree branch! I regained my composure and resumed what I was doing, which I'm sure you're wondering "what" exactly. Well, I'm at it again. I'm probably doing something close to what you would call "stalking". And no, not the type to steal someone's things and worship them, I'm the normal kind. I just follow him around and see what he's up to. Now you're probably asking "why?" well, it's too early to reveal that much.
I continued following him and I saw him enter a cave-like structure. I know what you're thinking what's a cave got to do with all this? To be honest, I have no idea. But in case you didn't notice I'm in a forest and apparently, there is a cave in this one.
Now moving on, I followed him inside slowly making sure to make my foot steps as inaudible as possible. I actually felt pretty impressed with myself as I was pretty good at all this spying but then again, I spoke/thought too soon. I was surprised when I felt a hand pulling my right arm and shoving me against the wall.
"Ow!" I cried, I've been saying that a lot lately I rolled my eyes mentally at this. As I opened my eyes, I saw dark crimson eyes staring right into my hazel ones. I couldn't tell much from afar but now that I have a closer look, and even though it's dark, I can tell, he is actually a bit good looking, that is, if he didn't look so angry. I can give him at least that much. My eyes drifted to the bridge of his nose until it stopped to his lips. Okay, this is weird I gott- and then right on cue my thoughts were stopped when he spoke, almost shouted at me.
"Who are you, and why are you following me?!" he looked fierce, too much for being a good spy.
"Calm down first okay?" I sighed. Here goes the boring stuff. "Hi, I'm Mikan Sakura a student from DG Academy. DG stands for demigod. I know, it's lame but we can't do anything about it. I was tasked by the higher ups to follow you around and evaluate your skills. And seeing as you caught me trailing you, that pretty much sums up the results. You have been chosen or more like hunted by the academy to join us. You have to come with me. They're all waiting for us at the Academy."
He calmed down a little at my explanation, "So, that explains all the people following me lately" Wow, those were Class C spies following him around, he must be good. But then again, he was chosen to be my partner so he's no ordinary guy.
He stepped back a little to give an arm's length distance between us and then he raised one of his eyebrows. "What makes you think I'd agree to all this? I don't like being ordered around like a puppet."
I smirked and placed a hand on my hip. "Actually you're not given a choice, you have to come with me whether you like it or not, and you probably can't hide your powers anymore, so coming with me would be the best idea. If you still don't agree, then you leave me no choice, I'm gonna have to use force."
He crossed his arms in front of his chest and gave me an amused look. "They sent a weak little girl to get me? They must be underestimating me, a lot."
Now it's my turn to raise a brow at him, this is exactly the type of guy I hate, one who underestimates women. I moved a little further away from him.
"Is there anything wrong with being a girl Mr. Hyuuga? And in what way do I resemble a weak young girl to you? I assure you, I am no weak being" I'm starting to hate this guy. I take back whatever compliment I gave about him.
"Oh? So that explains why I easily pinned you against the wall?" It's his turn to smirk. Oh, how I wanted to wipe that smirk out of his face!
I laughed to hide my annoyance. "Sorry to burst your bubble Mr. Hyuuga, but I am not allowed to injure you, as I was asked to "deliver" you to the academy scratch-free. But seeing as you're so intent on evaluating MY power, then I can reconsider." I was so annoyed that I lashed my power at him.
A strong dangerous burst of wind suddenly hit him. Oh no! I might have been too rough on him due to my annoyance. Stupid! Stupid! I need to learn to control my temper. I immediately ran towards him to check if he was okay. I stopped in surprise. With the amount of power I released, I expected there to at least be a hole, but there was none, the force brought his back against the wall but it didn't even show a hint of a dent. Yet again, I am amazed by his capabilities.
I hid my surprise. I slowly walked towards him and asked "Are you okay Mr. Hyuuga?
I heard him cough, "Okay, I see. Maybe you're not that weak after all, for a girl that is." He smirked. I hate that smirk almost as much as I hate the guy himself! And it's only the first day meeting him. Oh joy! I rolled my eyes. I don't feel sorry at all for almost trying to kill him.
"Even though I don't regret doing that, I still feel that it was unprofessional of me to lash out like that so, I'm sorry." Not. But now he can't say anything to the higher ups. Jerk!
"Nah, it's fine. I was planning to enter the academy even if you didn't come anyway. I was just messing around with you. Now let's head to the academy." He still had his hideous smirk on as he was walking towards the exit.
This is hell. Like seriously, I feel like I've met the devil himself.
He suddenly stopped and turned around to face me. "And Mikan?" The nerve of him to call me by my first name!
"What?" I answered obviously annoyed.
"You can call me Natsume." He winked and sent a devilish smile my way.
HEELP ME!
